Recipient of the “Approved Edition” seal from the Modern Language Association’s Committee on Scholarly EditionsThe Complete Letters of Henry James fills a gap in literary studies today by presenting in a critical and scholarly edition the complete letters of one of the great novelists and letter writers of the English language. Comprising more than ten thousand letters and addressing a remarkably wide range of topics, this edition is an indispensable resource for students and scholars of James, the European novel and modern literature, and of American and English literature, culture, and criticism. Written between November 1875 and November 1876, the letters in this volume find James settling in Paris; befriending Ivan Turgenev and mixing company with writers such as Gustave Flaubert, Emile Zola, and Alphonse Daudet; publishing travel essays and critical notices as well as the novels Roderick Hudson and The American; leaving Paris and settling in London, where he would live for much of the rest of his life.

"The general public has been deprived of James's full epistolary record until now... All the more reason to celebrate the present volumes, handsomely produced and extensively and intelligently annotated."-Peter Brooks, Bookforum -- Peter Brooks Bookforum "Rippling through these letters are the first imaginative stirrings of one of the greatest fiction and travel writers in the language. [James] was also one of the most entertaining-and prolific-correspondents... These are richly enthralling letters."-Peter Kemp, Sunday Times (London) -- Peter Kemp Sunday Times (London) "The Letters collected in these elegant volumes, edited by Pierre A. Walker and Greg W. Zacharias, cover periods in which Henry James became Henry James."-Michael Gorra, Times Literary Supplement -- Michael Gorra Times Literary Supplement
